With a slap in the face. The city refused the Giants a newbstadi- um in a November vote. The 'city also refused to alot city funding toconstruct a root on Candlestick, Park to prevent the winds from hamperingrthe team's play. Manager Roger Craig stated after the vote that he would relocate the team. Craig's threat! promise prompted San .iose's city planners to call for a new are- na to bebuilt in the downtown area. The proposed 200,000 seat sports arena wouid draw the Giants to the city. On Novermber 'l3.ithe San .lose City Coun- cil selected a site for the arena---West thenewQFoirmont tloteloheoed in Onto?

Suddenly, we were flooded with campaignpropaghando as thirteen candidetesentered the race for the office of the presidency. Prominent early in the race were Republicans George Bush, Robert Doie, and Pot Rob- ertson and Democrats Jesse Jackson and Michael Gore. Gary Hart left the race, and then re-entered in December. The other candidates--Republicans Haig, DuPont, and Kemp, and Demo- crats Simon, Babbit, Gephort, and Duka- kis--fell behind in the popularity pals due to a lack ofthe public's knowledge of their achievements.
